I started playing guitar in seventh grade. Cut my teeth on Metallica and the up and coming grunge stuff, (Nirvana, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam) whatever Guitar World magazine was tabbing out in the early nineties. Then I got caught smoking weed a bunch of times freshman year of high school and by the time I got off grounding all my friends were hippies, or at least doing there best to look like them. So black jeans became corduroys, NIN albums became Phish bootlegs, and I tried to relearn everything I didn't pay attention to in my guitar lessons and become Trey Anastasio. Mostly just got high alot, though. After high school I went to SIU Edwardsville, Carbondale's ugly sister to the west. More drugs. Was told by SIUE's head of jazz guitar not to bother with his program or waste his time. This is a guy who bills himself as a virtuoso. Easy, buddy. At the end of my freshman year I met a lunatic named Matt Meinert at a party. I played along while he sang the likes of John Prine, Lowell George, and Bob Dylan, and we clicked. The next year we got a house together and started playing gigs around town, though I had never played lead guitar, I quickly got my trial by fire and came out alright. We played together for three years and several different projects, and pulled off some impressive gigs in and around St. Louis, but almost nothing recorded, aside from a few home videos and random 4-track ramblings. Then we got caught growing uh, indoor vegetables, and both had to move out of town. He went to Springfield, Il, I went back to Chicago. I quickly realized that being a decent young guitar player in a small town means jack shit in Chicago, where there are 17 year olds that can play circles around me, so I sort of put it down for a while, and got back into hip hop. Now I know that sounds lame and white boyish, but to any Chicagoan around my age that knows about the Jukebox, I need not say more. For those who don't, the Jukebox was a music video station in the late 80's early 90's that you could only get if you wedged your TV dial (yes it had to be a dial) between channel 23 and 24. Most of what they played was early hip hop, so without realizing it, I had a pipeline to what most little white kids didn't and still don't: GOOD hip hop. Point being, I hooked back up with Ben Schlitz, a high school buddy who was studying art in Milwaukee and rapping on the side. We collaborated on one of his art projects that incorporated music, and a partnership was born. Soon after, I helped him build his studio and since, he's released three hip hop albums, two of which I was blessed to be a part of. My musical itch came back, and I signed up at the Bloom School of Jazz in downtown Chicago at age 23. David Bloom is a lot of things, good and not so great, but he is a fantastic teacher and group leader. At the school, I found myself part of an 8 piece jazz combo performing original tunes at legendary places like The Green Mill and the Jazz Showcase. Whether I deserved it or not, it was an amazing experience. At the same time I started a neighborhood band with some friends, including drummer Mike Barry. Mike and I stuck together through a funk/disco group that went through bass players like toilet paper, and eventually morphed into a country/folk/pop type deal that found me behind a microphone for the first time ever, less than a year ago. That group has since dissolved but since nobody threw a bottle at me for ruining their hearing, I decided to keep singing, and I've decided through all the influences I've picked up since coming back to Chicago, be it jazz, hip hop, house, that I want to sing the stuff I was playing with Matt Meinert, the person who got me on stage in the first place. So for now, that's what I'm doing. Matt Gandurski's Friend Space Matt Gandurski has 100 friends.

MySpace.com-Safety Tips SafetyTips My name is Parry Aftab. I am an Internet privacy and security lawyer . I founded and run the world’s largest online safety and help group, WiredSafety.org . You may have seen me on TV ,read one of my books or heard about me in magazines or newspapers on Internet safety issues, especially those impacting kids. I get lots of e-mails and inquiries from parents about all types of Internet risks. Recently, I have been receiving a large number of inquiries from schools, parents, regulators and the media about social-networking websites. I decided that it was important to address parent concerns and answer their questions. Where better to do that than on the most popular of all social-networking sites, MySpace.com? MySpace.com and other similar sites are designed to allow people to share their creativity, pictures, and information with others. Sometimes people do this to find romance. Sometimes they do it to find friends with similar interest. While this may be okay for adults, it is not okay for kids. MySpace.com recognizes this, and prohibits anyone under 14 years of age from using their website. Unfortunately, while they may set rules to keep younger kids off the site, they can’t prevent kids from lying about their age, pretending to be 14 years of age or older. To address this, MySpace.com has developed special software to review the profiles of their members, to try and find anyone under age, based on information the members post about themselves. It’s not perfect, but it does help spot the underage members. While MySpace.com is doing its best to keep your children from using their website and lying about their age, it’s up to parents to do their job too. Parents need to talk with their children about not sharing personal information online. Personal information includes pictures, names and addresses, schools they attend, cell and phone numbers and many other less obvious things, such as the name of their school team, ethnic background and even a mall near your house. (You can learn more about how to talk to your kids and what you should be asking at WiredKids.org or WiredSafety.org . I am an Internet privacy and security lawyer and founded the all-volunteer Wired Safety Group. We can help you if things go wrong online, or you just have questions. We provide information, education and one-to-one help for victims of cyberabuse.) We at WiredSafety.org are developing a special program just for parents concerned about their kids using social-networking and online dating sites. It will teach you what you need to know about finding out if your child has a profile on one of these sites, how to review them and remove them, if you want to. It will also help you if your child is being cyberbullied using one of these sites or members from these sites, or is cyberbullying others. The best way to find out if your child has a profile on this or another similar site is to ask them. If you’re not sure that your child is being honest with you, you can search MySpace.com using their e-mail address, or by searching for their school. (You click on “search” and enter their email address or full name in the appropriate search box.) If you find that your child has a profile on the website, you should review it. It’s amazing how much you can learn about your child by reading their profiles. Does it contain personal information, such as their full name, address or phone numbers? Has your child posted photos? Are they photos of themselves or someone else? Are they sharing poems they write or provocative comments about themselves or others? If you want the profile removed (you must remove your child’s profile if they are under age), contact MySpace.com’s parental help staff or contact me at WiredSafety.org . If you want something removed from their profile, you can contact the parental help staff as well. Ultimately, protecting your child is your job. But you have lots of help. At WiredKids.org and WiredSafety.org thousands of volunteers donate their time to helping parents and children surf responsibly and safely. And we will be building a few tutorials here at MySpace.com to help parents and their children understand how to be careful when communicating publicly online. Ask them why they created the profile. You might learn that they wanted to share their thoughts with others, make new friends or even allow others in their school to get to know them better. But not all of their motives are as noble or safe. Some may be interested in meeting new romantic interests or role-playing inappropriately online. And when a young preteen lies about their age posing as a seventeen year old at the site, that can be a serious problem. Others in their late teens might approach your child thinking they were older. That’s bad for everyone. If you discover that your child is posting provocative comments or inappropriate images online, it’s time for the tough talk. The one about stranger dangers and how that cute eighteen year old boy they meet online may not be cute, may not be eighteen and may not be a boy. (Parents of young boys need to understand that their children are equally at risk. About one-third of the cases of Internet sexual exploitation are men exploiting boys.) Our children need to realize that there are real risks relating to meeting strangers offline, including murder. The first confirmed murder victim by an Internet sexual predator was thirteen when she died, three years ago May 2005. The risks are real, not matter how smart, sophisticated or tech savvy your kids are. We recommend the book, A Girl’s Life Online, by Katie Tarbox. We are also developing a few videos for teens teaching them about standard ploys used by Internet sexual predators to lure a young boy or girl into an offline meeting or sexual exploitation situations online. It’s not easy raising children anymore. It is even harder when the parent is expected to be expert in Internet, cell phone and interactive game risks. The good thing is that you’re not facing these challenges alone. We’re here to help. Just remember that while your kids may know more than you do about technology, you know more about life. And you are allowed to set the rules and enforce them. You’re still the parent! There is software you can install that will record what your kids say and post online. There is even one that will e-mail you reports at work. The ones I like best are made by Spectorsoft, and can be found at software4parents.com or spectorsoft.com . But don’t use them just to spy on your kids. Treat them like a security video camera in the corner of a bank. No one views the tapes unless and until there is a break-in. Do the same here. Check the program reports if something goes wrong. It will collect whatever you need for evidence and to help your child if something goes wrong. Also, check your parental control programs. Many, such as AOL’s and MSN’s, can block access to social-networking websites or other sites you think are inappropriate for your younger child. There are many other products you can purchase to block sites as well. (Check out software4parents.com to learn about and purchase some of these.) Just remember that the best filter is the one between your children’s ears. If you child is being bullied by another MySpace.com use online, check the terms of service first. If the bullying violates MySpace.com’s terms of service, report it to TOS and the offending comments and/or profile will be removed. If something serious occurs and you need to reach out to law enforcement, let them know that MySpace.com has created a special procedure for law enforcement inquiries, especially when the safety and well-being of its site users is involved. They should contact abuse@myspace.com. Cyberbullying is a growing problem. You can learn more about it, as well as how to prevent and handle cyberbullying incidents, at WiredSafety’s StopCyberbullying.org and InternetSuperheroes.org . WiredSafety.org also has a reportline link for victims of cyberbullying, their schools and parents where specially-trained volunteers assist victims of cyberstalking, harassment and cyberbullying without charge. If schools are looking for a presentation or program to address their students’ posting inappropriate profiles or using these websites while underage or other parent concerns, they should visit WiredSafety.org , WiredKids.org or Teenangels.org . Schools may find many of their students using a particular website. If the students are under 13, please notify MySpace.com’s help staff and their profiles will be removed immediately. Working together with schools and parents, we may be able to keep our kids off of website that are inappropriate for young children and teach them to make good choices online and offline. If you have other questions, contact me at askparry@wiredsafety.org. Stay safe. Parry Aftab , Esq. Executive Director, The Wired Safety Group ( wiredsafety.org ) Learn more about WiredSafety.org!

They are both band shots. I would like to try and incorporate one of their album covers next time as some of them are really kick ass.

There are bound to be a couple of teething problems, if you spot any let us know by posting a message in the Website portion. Some of you will remember that we tried boards ages back and removed them, this was because A) The Message Board System Yabb Sucked Ass B) Demonolog wasn't getting the monster traffic it gets these days Enjoy :) Hotlinking & New Slipknot Wallpaper 09 Oct 2005 Right, finally got around to sorting out all the bandwidth theft going on. Of course i want you all to use the images provided here but there are tons of free image hosting sites out there for you to copy them to. I just can't afford the bandwidth bill anymore seeing as we get over 2000 people a day here and there are currently a couple of hundred sites hotlinking me at the moment. So sorry dudes, check out photobucket (its free) and copy pics there if you want to use them. I've just uploaded a new slipknot wallpaper to the Metal Wallpaper section.
